There was a post a while back where you could send the vin / mileage (100K+) in to Dodge and get a plate frame.

Well, here I am, eight years later, with 133,553. That would be ~35K in eight years.

At the time of these videos it only had a K&N cold air intake & exhaust with stock cats up to the end of the factory Y pipe. For some reason it doesn't hit the rev limiter as hard when you physically put it in 1st gear, she will sit just below it and eat tires forever, in drive it will bounce off the limiter all day and even continue a burnout in 2nd gear.

Now its got headers & Superchips 91 octane & trans tune, feels like you're getting rear ended by a vehicle when you hammer the kickdown at 40mph.

Should get a higher stall converter, nothing outlandish. Changes the nature of the vehicle, even with the stock cam. I have a Circle D 2800, drives like normal til you drop the hammer.
